Scars Left Behind

~A Poem That Took A Week Or More To Write~ Scars Left Behind. Scarred since birth born with a congenital deforming cleft lip abandoned unacceptable by nobody I don't belong to your universe I don't belong to be a guest in your domiciles as I am avoided I don't belong to share a sunrise as I am blindfolded I don't belong to your beauty parlor as I look repugnant I don't belong to participate to a party as I am nameless I don't belong to be present at a birth of a new born banned to come closer to the mother. Scars at birth. My solitude drove me to flee towards one site the lighthouse stand alone far away far maybe my voice might be heard begging to be saved from the sufferings on this earth as my anguish has no end. My soul will only triumph while waiting for the sun of love the moon of light the stars that shine I will wait,wait to pick up the echo of the passing vessels listen to the whisper of the winds getting windier watch the dark waters drifting off flowing away blown back towards the shore a farewell leaving me alone. Scars till I die Who shall I belong to? I have no friends its so obscure outside there is so much stillness around me afraid alone aware of my shadows disappearance I called for anybody`s support to facilitate my survival alleviate my pain nobody came I need to rest and allow my soul to escape who will? who can? who wants to rescue me? I am tired I was left behind scarred without a mother or father nor brother or sister I tried but could not save myself. My soul drifting as I could not belong to someone watch over me love me feed me talk to me look at me even scarred run with me when I am old to the harbor before the ship sails but I flawed I had no strength nobody heard a word everybody ignored me. Help Me The ship sailed leaving without my soul because none came to liberate me I am still homeless and scarred. Help me to forget help me to survive can anybody do that? Please.
